No, you should not. Look at the ScriptAlias configuration directive at
apache.org ;-)

This line tells apache that the "web directory" /nagios/cgi-bin is matched
by the "physical directory" /usr/local/nagios/sbin on your filesystem. And
that (executable) scripts are stored inside.

Same as above: apache translates a query to /nagios to your local directory
/usr/local/nagios/share.

Make sure both of the directories under /usr/local/nagios exist :-) and
that apache may access them (with a "chmod 755" for example).

Maybe a look into /var/log/apache2 or whereever your apache logs to will
tell you the answer?
